​ Amounts due within one year consist of the amortization payments for the $500 million term loan B of 1.0% of the original principal balance, as described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. At June 30, 2021, there were no defaults under the covenants related to the Company’s outstanding debt based on the amended terms reached with the lenders in December 2020. Tender Offer and Redemption of $400 Million 5% Senior Notes Due 2023 On February 9, 2021, the Company commenced a cash tender offer for any and all outstanding $400 million 5% senior notes due 2023 (the “$400 Million 5% Senior Notes”) at a redemption price of $1,005.00 per $1,000 principal amount. Pursuant to the tender offer, $161.9 million aggregate principal amount of the $400 Million 5% Senior Notes were validly tendered. The Company used a portion of the proceeds from the issuance of the $600 million 4.50% senior notes discussed below to fund the tender offer. In accordance with the indenture governing the $400 Million 5% Senior Notes, subsequent to expiration of the tender offer, in February 2021 the Company gave irrevocable notice of the redemption of all remaining $400 Million 5% Senior Notes not tendered in the tender offer. The redemption and cancellation of the remaining $400 Million 5% Senior Notes was completed on April 15, 2021. The Company used a portion of the proceeds from the issuance of the $600 million 4.50% senior notes discussed below to fund the redemption. As a result of the Company’s purchase of tendered $400 Million 5% Senior Notes and the redemption of all untendered $400 Million 5% Senior Notes, the Company recognized a loss on extinguishment of debt of $2.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2021. ​ $600 Million 4.50% Senior Notes Due 2029 On February 17, 2021, the Operating Partnership and RHP Finance Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Finco”) completed the private placement of $600.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 4.50% senior notes due 2029 (the “$600 Million 4.50% Senior Notes”), which are guaranteed by the Company and its subsidiaries that guarantee the Company’s credit agreement. The $600 Million 4.50% Senior Notes and guarantees were issued pursuant to an indenture by and among the issuing subsidiaries, the guarantors and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee. The $600 Million 4.50% Senior Notes have a maturity date of February 15, 2029 and bear interest at 4.50% per annum, payable semi-annually in cash in arrears on February 15 and August 15 each year, beginning on August 15, 2021. The $600 Million 4.50% Senior Notes are general unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of the issuing subsidiaries and rank equal in right of payment with such subsidiaries’ existing and future senior unsecured indebtedness, including the Company’s $700 million 4.75% senior notes due 2027, and senior in right of payment to future subordinated indebtedness, if any. The $600 Million 4.50% Senior Notes are effectively subordinated to the issuing subsidiaries’ secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness. The guarantees rank equally in right of payment with the applicable guarantor’s existing and future senior unsecured indebtedness and senior in right of payment to any future subordinated indebtedness of such guarantor. The $600 Million 4.50% Senior Notes are effectively subordinated to any secured indebtedness of any guarantor to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness and structurally subordinated to all indebtedness and other obligations of the Operating Partnership’s subsidiaries that do not guarantee the $600 Million 4.50% Senior Notes. The net proceeds from the issuance of the $600 Million 4.50% Senior Notes totaled approximately $591 million, after deducting the initial purchasers’ discounts, commissions and offering expenses. The Company used a significant portion of these proceeds to tender and redeem the previous $400 Million 5% Senior Notes, as discussed above, and to repay all of the amounts outstanding under the Company’s revolving credit facility. The Company used the remaining net proceeds for general corporate purposes. The $600 Million 4.50% Senior Notes are redeemable before February 15, 2024, in whole or in part, at 100.00%, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but not including, the redemption date, plus a make-whole premium. The $600 Million 4.50% Senior Notes will be redeemable, in whole or in part, at any time on or after February 15, 2024 at a redemption price expressed as a percentage of the principal amount thereof, which percentage is 102.250%, 101.500%, 100.750%, and 100.000% beginning on February 15 of 2024, 2025, 2026, and 2027, respectively, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but not including, the redemption date. Interest Rate Derivatives The Company has entered into interest rate swaps to manage interest rate risk associated with the Company’s $500 million term loan B and the Gaylord Rockies $800 million term loan. Each swap has been designated as a cash flow hedge whereby the Company receives variable-rate amounts in exchange for fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreement without exchange of the underlying principal amount. The Company does not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes and currently does not hold any derivatives that are not designated as hedges. For derivatives designated as and that qualify as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk, the gain or loss on the derivative is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss and subsequently reclassified to interest expense in the same period during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. These amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on the related variable-rate debt. The Company estimates that $16.0 million will be reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss to interest expense in the next twelve months. The estimated fair value of the Company’s derivative financial instruments at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 is as follows (in thousands):

​ Reclassifications from accumulated other comprehensive loss for interest rate swaps are shown in the table above and included in interest expense. Total consolidated interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 was $29.8 million and $30.0 million, respectively, and for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 was $60.6 million and $59.4 million, respectively. At June 30, 2021, the fair value of derivatives in a net liability position including accrued interest but excluding any adjustment for nonperformance risk related to these agreements was $20.8 million. As of June 30, 2021, the Company has not posted any collateral related to these agreements and was not in breach of any agreement provisions. If the Company had breached any of these provisions, it could have been required to settle its obligations under the agreements at the aggregate termination value of $20.8 million. In addition, the Company has an agreement with its derivative counterparty that contains a provision whereby the Company could be declared in default on its derivative obligations if repayment of the underlying indebtedness is accelerated by the lender due to the Company’s default on the indebtedness.
